The bold, beautiful sound of a Martin lefty dreadnought, priced for anyone to own.
Martin has always made prudent use of natural resources, especially rare or endangered tonewoods. At
the same time, it's committed to building guitars of superior tone and playability that are affordable to every guitarist.
This left-handed Martin guitar from the X Series more than meets both of these criteria.
Martin guitars from the X
series feature patented high pressure laminate (HPL) back and sides with a solid Sitka spruce top, patented mortise and tenon
neck construction, and professionally installed Fishman electronics. The result: great-sounding, great-playing guitars, that
are environmentally friendly, and priced to fly out the door. This is one of Martin's best values ever. The X Series affirms
Martin's commitment to providing an affordable and competitive option to players dedicated to live performance.
The
6-string Martin DX1AE lefty acoustic-electric guitar features a D-14 platform, a dreadnought guitar body design producing
big, round sound. Pairing the Sitka spruce top with the mahogany-pattern HPL back and sides, the Martin DX1AE guitar belts
out rich clarity and plenty of projection. The mortise and tennon neck joint ensures solid construction of the instrument,
with optimal resonant tone, while eliminating drop-off in the finer dynamics.
The Martin DX1AE guitar's stratabond
neck is a multilayered wood creation, bonding layers of wood under extremely high pressure. The material is then carved and
finished in a conventional manner. The end result is a very strong neck that provides definition and articulate sustain from
note to note.
The left-handed Martin guitar's modified low oval neck shape, 25.4" scale, 1-11/16" nut width, and 16"
radius provide comfort and dexterity when performing intricate movements and progressions along the black Richlite fretboard.
This
Martin X Series guitar features proven Sonicore pick-up technology with the Fishman Sonitone system featuring "easy access"
volume and tone controls conveniently and strategically located just inside the sound hole.
Dressed in a satin finish
and featuring chrome tuners, chrome hardware, this left-handed guitar has the look and sound of a highly collectible Martin,
but goes for a price that anyone can afford. Embrace the dream of owning your very own Martin DX1AE guitar, at a price that
is too good to pass up.
All X Series guitars arrive stage ready—just plug them in and play. This Martin guitar
also includes a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
